Google Assistant

“Hey Siri. OK Google.” No, really. With Siri Shortcuts support in Google’s AI helper, you can now assign a custom phrase such as “OK Google” or “Hey Google” to open the Assistant app just by asking Siri.

your Google Assistant is growing up! Adding the “Hey Google” wake-up phrase before each follow-up question hasn’t feeled as natural as users would prefer so the search giant rolled out a new Continued Conversations feature.

iDevices built an Amazon Alexa speaker right into their upcoming Instinct wall switch, and while we didn’t get to try it, we did get to check it out, as well as iDevices other new products, at CES 2018.
